I once heard a tale about this leader:apparently he had a residence that was guarded by agressive birds. Is there any truth to this? If so, is it worth including? Evilbu 11:48, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

I couldn't find anything about it. I wonder if you could train birds to be guards? I bet those birds would have risen up against Duvalier too. MorrisGregorian 09:21, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

I've added an unreferenced template to this page. Though there is one published reference listed at the bottom, there is an awful lot of controversial and potentially POV material in this article, and proper footnotes are definitely needed. -- TinaSparkle 11:41, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

The article is mostly copied from the Library of Congress country study on Haiti. Since it's in the public domain, I just pasted it to this article. I don't know where they got their info, but I'm going to assume the Library of Congress is a reputable source. Since it was mostly copied I wasn't sure how to footnote it - it seemed like it would have gotten excessive. MorrisGregorian 22:07, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] grand daughter?

"Veronique Roy is the *absolutely not* granddaughter of..." This is a recent modification from an unnamed contributor. Are there anyone else with any support for this altered claim? Supermagle 18:47, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
